G. Derek Adams – Writer of Minotaur Poetry

Housekeeping

The idle seed of a bored work-day two years ago, now grown into a titanic million word wunder-tree.

[That is not hyperbole. That is a low estimate of the amount that me and the gang have written.]

I’m still more than a little shell-shocked. Not only from the bizarre notion that I actually finished something — but just the pangs of psychic vacuum as several areas of my brain whir to a halt. I’ve had Lodestar running in the background [and foreground] of my mind for two years – what am I going to do with all these system resources?

I told a lot of stories, and hopefully helped the players tell theirs. There’s literally so much, that there are sections I can barely remember.

You’ll notice that I’m posting the epilogue for Lodestar in bits and pieces over the next week or so, just a little buffer while I grieve, and GEAR THE FUCK UP.

For what, you ask.

Time to start editing the book, the Spell/Sword for Beta Draft reading! I’m making a Blog Promise that my Beta Draft will be ready before Halloween. This may be over-bold, but hey — I just helped write a million-word internet epic, nothing is impossible.

Once the Lodestar stuff peters out, the plan is to do more regular blogging and short stories for here — I clearly are going to have some energy to redirect.
